Onwards, always

My mother always taught me that it’s important to be humble in your successes. Some things are so much more important than just making money. Success comes in many shapes and forms and it’s important we don’t lose sight of what they are. Core values and ethics are foundational principles as a doctor. And we must never lose sight of that.

So I want to dedicate this to all of the game changers, the dreamers, the failed entrepreneurs that are picking themselves up as we speak to get back in the game and that will never give up on their dreams, to all the hard-working folks out there that are supporting their families and don’t get time to rest, the visionaries that lack the funds to kick start their plan but won’t back down, the students that against all odds believe they can make a global impact, and to all my colleagues that have been kind to me over the years and supported my vision. It’s also important to acknowledge those people that despite big challenges and great personal sacrifice still go out of their way to help their fellow human being. Thank you!

It takes a lot longer than you ever plan for to be truly successful at anything. And by the time you realise you might be good at it, your definition of success changes, because you do too. This is why you must always love what you do.
